What We Do
UKHACC brings together trusted voices from across the health sector to turn concern into action. We work to ensure that the health impacts of climate change are understood by government, healthcare organisations and healthcare professionals alike.
We use our leadership and influencing power to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and build resilience at the pace and scale needed to protect people, health and healthcare from climate change. We are an alliance of health organisations advocating for a just, sustainable, healthy world. We coordinate action, deliver campaigns, and ensure the voice of health professionals are heard on action to mitigate and adapt to climate change and protect the natural environment.
